A Thanksgiving Poem from your loyal blogger


On Thanksgiving Weekend to family you’ll ride,

O’re bridges, through Valleys and up the hillsides.

Don’t forget football, for each game we choose sides,

For Saturday’s Iron Bowl, we’ll all yell “Roll Tide!”

 

Gobble the turkey and finish the pies;

Laugh with the family ‘till tears fill your eyes;

Make Dad wash the dishes, but tell him he’s wise.

Careful while driving ‘cause there’s snow in the skies

 

For on this great weekend we must not be cranks,

‘Cause the original Turkey Day (when Pilgrims were Yanks)

Was a day to share grace, shake hands and give thanks

For the peace that was found between men of all ranks.

 

On this day when we think so much about feeding (ourselves)

We should practice goodwill, to you I am pleading.

Whatever you do, though, this thought I am seeding

I am grateful to you for all of your reading.
